So you're saying you're never going to take a drug that hasn't been tested for 20 years first? Not if a nazi government agency like this liberal government is mandating that I take it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lod001 1,344 Posted September 21, 2021 Why would DeSantis push this disaster anymore since the newest numbers say that the failed jab juice may only last 4-6 months. Its a complete waste of time now since the CDC is recommending NOT to take a 3rd jab for those under 65. WTF take something that is useless in 6 months. Ye, you have the same protection as anyone who didn't take it. You will get just as sick as you would have if you didn't take it. Early treatment would have saved 1000s of lives that fauci snuffed out. I just love how their science is tagged to ages and number of employees. Dumbest administration in the history of the USA.

Found this statement from July, which might help to explain his desire to not pummel his constituents with it. Quote While DeSantis stressed the importance and efficacy of the vaccine, he also warned against government officials pushing vaccination too hard. “They have different reasons for why they don’t take it and I think the more they’re hectored by government officials or some of these folks – that is not going to get them to ‘yes.’ I can tell you that right now,” he said. “I think these are folks that have skepticism of authorities. I think they have different reasons why they may not do it. I don’t think most of them think COVID is a hoax or anything. I think they understand.” https://www.wfla.com/community/health/coronavirus/vaccines-are-saving-lives-desantis-stresses-importance-of-shots-as-florida-covid-cases-spike-criticizes-mask-mandates/ If you read the entire thing it is quite clear that he supports vaccines, just not mandates or government overbearance.

It's not that he's not encouraging it "enough," he hasn't really encouraged it at all during their recent wave as best I can tell. He did a good job helping people get vaccinated early on, but seems to just be congratulating himself on that and now pivoting to the "early treatment" strategy, which may be helping slightly, but considering their current spike has gotten 50% higher than their previous highest point and the highest vaccinated states continue to see much better numbers, I think it's safe to conclude that Florida would have done better if they got more people vaccinated.

It IS that he isn't encouraging enough: Quote “He seems to be trying to walk a very fine line, where he’s definitely not an anti-vaxxer, and he will occasionally give a side comment that, yes, people should still get the vaccine,” said Aubrey Jewett, a professor of political science at the University of Central Florida. “But he doesn’t seem to be willing to invest the political capital to hold events and do a public relations campaign to try to convince Republicans, in particular, to get this shot.” ... Whenever he’s asked why he isn’t backing vaccination as fervently as REGEN-COV, the name of the medicine made by the Regeneron company, the governor always points to the 50 or so vaccine events he held over the winter and spring. “There is no single policy priority that Governor DeSantis has devoted more time to this year than promoting COVID-19 vaccination,” DeSantis press secretary Christina Pushaw said Thursday. “He did over 50 public appearances in 27 counties focused on the vaccines. ... If someone is truly opposed to getting vaccinated — after all this time, all the data we have, and all the reports that most people who are hospitalized are unvaccinated — one more press conference from any politician (especially a politician who has always promoted vaccination) is not going to change their minds.” https://www.orlandosentinel.com/politics/os-ne-desantis-vaccines-20210826-ofvcqlb4fvgyzn4mndkgqkjtiy-story.html That seems like a fairly liberal paper BTW.
